# Assessment/Evaluation
## Thoughts
### What we know
- Harder to assess people who are nervous
- “I think you know it"
- Maybe work with someone else
- We set the tone
- (Summative) Competency
- Formal
- (Formative) learning
- Informal
### What we do
- Use assessment of a person to determine what they know and can do
- Doing is different than knowing
- How do we understand the impact of our intervention
- Use assessment after the fact
- process
- Can they do what we hope they learned?
- Do they know what we hope they learned?
- Where did they start?
- content
- Real world outcomes
- How many people of those who needed it did we reach?
- **How did the learners feel about the program?**
- **Learner contact hours - that’s the bosses want to see**
- COST / VALUE
- What drives our performance in the real world?
- Can we change values?
- Can we expose biases?
## Feelings
### Nervous about being evaluated
### Anxious about expectations
### What might come after? What if I fail?
### Want them to be empowered
### Want them to be confident
### Our patients need our learners to be competent
### Sometimes uncertain about if we are able to assess - especially if they are nervous
### What values are important to us and the organization?
## Highlights
### Reactions to our education is key to it being sustainable
### telling and learning are not the same thing
### How do we add meaning to the education? - Backwards design
